Post subject:  R526 and SN45G

Just tried installing R526 on a Shttule SN45G setup but am not getting any joy with the network interface, apparently due to the lack of an nvnet driver. After reading through previous posts it appears that the 'old' solution was to run /usr/local/bin/install-nvnet.sh but that file no longer exists. Comments elsewhere suggest that the nvnet driver has been added to the kernel since 2.6.8 but I can't find this driver anywhere (either binary or source). Does anyone out there have an idea of what I need to do to get this network interface working? TIA.

Good research! It should use the forcedeth module.
Code:
modprobe forcedeth
netcardconfig
Results?

After various mucking around it turns out that somehow the network port was turned off in the BIOS; re-enabling it and reinstalling fixed the problem. Thanks for the help!
